Marriage of the Di Daughter Chapter 129 Part 3: Obsessed

Jiang Li involved herself in the Xue family’s case in the palace discussion, and that was that, after all, there was no evidence. She had persuaded Liu taifei with great difficulty to explain to Emperor Hong Xiao and select an auspicious date, intending to take Shen Yurong as the princess’s husband. Shen Yurong had also agreed. Against reason, at this time, the Xue family’s case was exposed, and Xue Fangfei, who had gradually been forgotten by the people in Yanjing, was mentioned again.

Thus, no need to talk about getting married with Shen Yurong, as long as she had a bit of relationship with Shen Yurong and walked a bit closer, those people who liked to act on groundless accusations would say: In order to be together with Shen Yurong, Princess Yongning instructed Feng Yu Tang to frame Xue Huaiyuan and imprison him. This kind of tactic, perhaps, there was something behind the matter of Xue Fang Fei engaging in an illicit affair!

Yongning did not want the dirty water on Xue Fang Fei to be washed clean and let her become the first beautiful and talented woman in Yanjing again!

What she was most anxious about was Shen Yurong setting the marriage aside due to this case.

Having been in love with Shen Yurong for so long, Princess Yongning had also figured out Shen Yurong’s temperament. Shen Yurong was cautious and used to weigh the pros and cons. This matter was damaging to him and not beneficial at all, so he would definitely reconsider his marriage with her. At least for now, he would not get married to her. Shen Yurong could wait, but she, Princess Yongning, could not wait. What if something happened midway? She was in a hurry to possess him.

Now Shen Yurong had retreated and Princess Yongning nearly fell out with him over this matter. Shen Yurong was extremely stubborn so this time, even Yongning felt frustrated. She could not deal with Shen Yurong, so all the hatred was transferred to Jiang Li. If Jiang Li was not so nosy and looked into Xue’s case, how could the situation come to this!

Princess Yongning suspected that Jiang Li was deliberate. She instructed Feng Yu Tang to assassinate Jiang Li, but it unexpectedly failed. She was also killed by Jiang Li and the people of Tongxiang she brought to the capital, catching her off guard. Mentioning her name in the palace discussion was clearly intentional. Jiang Li had long known that she sent people to kill her, but instead, she turned the table. Princess Yongning even had a conjecture that Jiang Li might have possibly known since earlier that she was the master behind Feng Yutang, and did not accidentally learn about it from the letter. The name Xue Fangfei was also not casually mentioned by her. Perhaps Jiang Li even knew about Xue Fangfei’s cause of death….. In the end, how much did she know?

All of a sudden, Princess Yongning stood up, impatience on her face. She had dealt with the people who knew about Xue Fang Fei’s matters. She believed in being absolutely safe in the things she did and would not let other people be aware of it. However, she did not know why Jiang Li’s appearance gave birth to an uneasy feeling, always feeling that Xue Fang Fei’s case was not completely secure.

“It won’t do,” a trace of ruthlessness flashed on her face, “Jiang Li must not stay alive in this world.”

Xue Fang Fei was already dead, everything about Xue Fang Fei and the Xue family should be buried, just like Xue Fang Fei, with no mention from anyone. Along with time, there would be no more traces of their existence in the world. Since Jiang Li touched the Xue family’s secret, even if it was just a possibility, she no longer had any reason to stay alive in this world.

Chop the grass to eliminate the root, who let her think for herself and unfortunately, pulled a relationship with the Xue family.

“Princess, you must not.” Princess Yongning’s close handmaid, Mei Xiang, said, “Xue’s case has just passed, His Royal Highness Cheng Wang said he does not know what strategy the emperor is coming up with in the dark. If something happened to Miss Jiang second at this time, wouldn’t it give the emperor the chance to deal with our princess mansion. Besides, Miss Jiang second was not an ordinary person, with many bodyguards around her. It’s hard to avoid leaving a mark doing things in Yanjing. Princess, it’s really too risky.”

Mei Xiang was Princess Yongning’s trusted aide and she had full confidence in her. Princess Yongning pinched her eyebrows and said impatiently, “This won’t do, that won’t do. Jiang Li simply does not put this princess in her eyes. Don’t tell this princess to let her be this unbridled. If it were not her, how could this princess and official Shen be noisy to such an extent. This princess ate a loss in her hand, don’t tell me that I can’t do anything and swallow this silently? How is it possible?!”

Princess Yongning is used to being domineering, indeed there had not been any situation like this where she ate a loss and was unable to say anything. Mei Xiang walked over, supported Princess Yongning to lay down once again and hammered her shoulders gently. She said, “Princess, it’s not that we can’t deal with Miss Jiang second, but rather must not do it at this time. Wait for the wind direction to change a little, it won’t be too late for the princess to act.”

“It’s easy to speak.” Princess Yongning sneered, “Whenever this princess recalls this matter, this princess itches to tear the skin on this cheap person. You want this princess to endure, it’s easier said than done!”

“Princess, actually it’s really not enduring.” Mei Xiang said patiently, “Some things do not need the princess to do herself. Though Miss Jiang second looks gentle, she has made many enemies in the Jiang family. If someone acted on behalf of the princess, the princess does not have to do anything, just waiting to reap the benefit, isn’t it a wonderful thing?”

Princess Yongning heard the actual meaning of her words and asked, “What do you mean?”

“Slave heard that Miss Jiang second was sent to Mount Qingcheng seven years ago due to her reputation of harming her mother and killing her brother. Think about it, her own son was killed in this young lady’s hand, how would Madam Jiang be willing? There are two di daughters in the main branch of the Jiang family. Originally, the Jiang family’s third miss, Jiang You Yao, was famous in Yanjing, the envy of everyone. Who knew when Miss Jiang second returned to the capital, in half a year, she did not just obtained the first position in the examination, received the emperor’s gift, she also gets the people’s sentiments. All the common people in Yanjing who heard of Jiang second miss’s reputation praised her.”

“In contrast, Miss Jiang third became duller, and people are comparing. The more well-off Miss Jiang second is, who will feel more unwell? The one suffering will be Miss Jiang third. As the birth mother of Miss Jiang third, added to the former grievance, how could Ji-shi feel comfortable? Therefore princess, say, currently, who is the person who hates Miss Jiang second the most, and the one who regards her as the thorn in her side?”
